He did just that by shouting out St. Louis in his touching proposal to his dance captain girlfriend. In the middle of performing “Single Ladies,” Beyoncé brought out Everett, who popped the question then and there.

After Everett accepts, her fellow dancers join her for a group hug while Beyoncé finishes out the song’s ultra-catchy—and especially meaningful—hook: “If you liked it then you should’ve put a ring on it.”
